i bought a scrapbook album. i also bought some of those sheets that you put in for the background. but.... i don't know what to do now. is it smart to make a scrapbook for every year, starting now? because i take a lot of pictures, but in the scrapbook, it only came with 10 pages. how do i add pages into the scrapbook? also, do you know anywhere that sells cheap scrapbook paper to put in the pages for backgrounds? i would appreciate any help i can get on creating a scrapbook. thanks

My boyfriend's sister likes to make each book with a theme. My favourite book she made features pictures of her circle of friends partying and carousing with fun little captions, stickers, speech bubbles, etc. She used photo pages and put them in a binder, though. That way, each page is self-contained and she can change their order or add new pages.

For cheap scrapbooking supplies, try a dollar store! I've seen some really cute stickers, gems, papers, corner brackets, and other random awesome stuff in the crafting section at my local dollar store.

My albums are separated for each person in our family. I started my kid's albums when they were babies and they go through graduation. I also have a family album for events and occasions when we're all there. It's a matter of preference though. You might also have a separate album for a trip for just Christmas.

I get lots of good deals on Ebay for scrapbooking supplies. Good luck!
